The other day I, in the left lane was traveling on the America, North Rt 8 in Derby CT. Suddenly the driver in the right lane (in a mini van of course) swiftly merged into my lane of travel. I had to go into the left shoulder to get out of the way left of the yellow line there, This is the first time I got in a pickle on a limited access highway. I've been in three accidents, 1, applied the front brake while turning right. Slid down on sand. 2, While going way too fast into a 25 mph curve at, at least 40mph.on Rt 57 in MA. 3, Broke 4 ribs, had to drive 40 miles to return home.Rt 202 in Torrington CT in the right lane was cut off by a car quickly turning left into my lane. Went down all these times. Only got hurt in the 25 mph curve. LIke they say there are two kinds of motorcycle riders, those that have never gone down and those that have gone down.
